There's a very minor honey note and slight tobacco taste from the gold cavendish. The unsweetened black cavendish adds a little smoothness to the blend, but no vanilla. The coffee topping is mild and creamy sweet with a touch of sugar. Like Fr_Tom, I noticed the barest hint of bitterness, but I really think it's the kind one can usually expect when they drink coffee. The taste of coffee from the tobacco is a little milder than the smell of the tobacco itself, and could use a little more strength of taste. Mostly, this is a smooth, fairly easy burning all day smoke with a consistent flavor, and no bite. Not much nicotine here. Leaves some moisture in the bowl, but no dottle or goop. Has a pleasant after taste and room note. Two and a half stars.

I was given a few ounces of this I have been smoking on the commute. It is described as "highly aromatic" and mine was not. It has a little more topping than Carter Hall, but less than PS Nougat. The golden cavendish and black cavendish combo in the description are on the money. The black cavendish does not have any vanilla. The pouch note is slightly sweet and identifiable as coffee.

Smoked this was a pleasant surprise. It has a flavor I can describe as coffee with cream and one sugar. There is a soft creamy feel to it on the tongue and a slightly sweet, slightly bitter coffee taste. There is not much tobacco flavor, but what little is there is nutty and mellow. It has been easy to smoke and does not require attention.

This is a fairly good mild aromatic. I am surprised it does not get more love on TR. I would like a little more tobacco flavor in there, but the topping is pleasant and smoking characteristics are good.

I got to try this before a favorite shop went out of business, If you like the thought of smoking coffee than you'll love this blend , smokes and tastes and smells like coffee, tasted as good as chocolate expresso beans yum yum!
